“No one has ever become poor by giving.” 
Anne Frank

“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”  ― Mother Teresa

“It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.”  ― 
Mahatma Gandhi


“Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.” ― Andrew Boyd


“Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love”

“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” ― Aesop


 Little is known about the ancient Greek writer Aesop (c. 620 B.C.E.–c.560 B.C.E.), he was said to have been a slave who earned his freedom through his storytelling and went on to serve as advisor to a king. Both his name and the animist tone of his tales have led some scholars to believe he may have been Ethiopian in origin.




“Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.”  ― Dalai Lama XIV


Dalai Lama means Ocean of Wisdom; Tibetans normally refer to His Holiness as Yizhin Norbu, the Wish-Fulfilling Gem, or simply Kundun, the Presence.
